"But you must admit, madame, that if I forgot my Christian duties by robbing my neighbor of his man servant, of his maid servant, of his OK, of his ass and the balance of what he may possess, respect sometimes his wife,"
 And laughing, saluting, Cartouche van- ished in the crowd, while madame the duchess entered her coach on the Parvis Notre Dame.
 ''There were a few killed, many wound ed and thousands robbed" said Pignerol in his ''History of Paris"
 CartOuche continued his deeds of ban dit gentleman. He promenaded the streets during the day and the roofs during the night. He showed himself in the public parks, sat down in the most popular res taurants, and went to the opera to see the new plays, and often, early in the morning, he raised rumpus with fish merchant, the worst virago of the market.
 To conclude, he was the most fashion able brigand of the world and the best soul of Paris.
 A few months after his prowess of Notre Dame the gendarmes of monsieur the lieutenant of police surprised him in his bed in little inn of the Courtille.
 They chained him like wild beast and conducted him to the prison of the Chat elet.
 Great rumor in the capitalI It was well done, but everybody was sorry for it, the gendarmes and monsieur the lieutenant of police excepted.
 Both aristocracy and commonalty be- sieged the gates of the Chatelet in their eagerness to see the amiable, witty, gen. tlsmanly and loved thief and murderer. Madame the Duchess de Boufflers went with the others.
 Cartouche greeted her as an old ac- quaintance.
 "Excuse me, madame, for not receiving you as you did me. You see am like the handsomest girl of this world-I cannot give but what have, and have nothing; the gendarmes of monsieur the lieutenant of police, my friend, have crrried away my property-that is to say, others prop erty."
 The duchess reddened, grimaced q smile and departed, leaving only two louis ($8), thing that the press qualified as un worthy of Madame the Duchess Marshal de Boufflers.
 Cartouche marched to the gallows with the grace of a duke and was magnificently broken on the wheels on the Place de Groves on the 18th of November of the good year of our Lord 1721.-Translated for The Graphic from the French by Guard 821, Sixth avenue line elevated railroad. The criminal sentenced to be broken on the wheel was tied upon large wheel laid fiat on the scaffold, the arms and legs apart. The execu- tioner, armed with heavy iron bar, broke each arm and leg at first, then, with last blow, called le coup de grace (the merciful blow) he put the patient out of his torture by striking him across the breast

THE WESTERN SETTLERS CHOSEN

With every advance of immigration into the far West new demand is created for Hostel. ters Stomach Bitters. Newly peopled regions are frequently less sa aubrious than older settled localities, on account of the miasma which rises from recently cleared land. particularly along the banks of rivers that are subject to freshets The agricultural or mining emigrant soon learns, when he does not already know that the Btters afford the only Sure protection against malaria, and those disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. to which climate changes, ex- posure and unaccuston q or IT heal,hy water or diet subject him.

The Demand for Olixas.

It is noted that great demand for olives has sprung up in consequence of the approach of the Jewish holidays. It is said that the Hebrews are great con- sumers of both the olive and the oil ex- tracted from it. So great is the demand that some of the California fruit growers have made attempts to cultivate the olive, but so far have not been able to make it profltable.-Oswego Times.

A FACE.

Bstwsen the curtains of snowy lace. Over the way, k . baby's face. ltpeeps forth, smiling in merry glee, And waves its pink little hand at me. My heart responds with lonely cry. But in the wonderful by and by, Out from the window of Gods ITO be-" That other baby shall beckon to me. That ever haunting and longed for face, That perfect vision of infant grace. Shali shine on me in splendor of light, Never to fade from my eager sight.

How Indians Poison Trout.

In some parts of California the Indians gather certain poisonous plant in large quantities and throw it into pool or brook where they know there are trout. Then they whip the water with branches until the juice ot the plant exudes. The result is that large numbers of trout be- come stupefied and come to the surface, where they are easily captured.

A PRESENTATION.
J. A. Kelly Surprised by his
CO.WOrkers.

Mr.. j. A. Kelly, assistant manager
of the Abstract Title Insurance Co.,
was the surprised recipient of testi-
monials from his co-workers yesterday
afternoon Since the Sd Of January
this company has increased its force
from Is to rs, and the chief instru-
ment in its success has been Mr..
Kelly. Yesterday was his 35th birth
day, and, to testify to their good feel
ing toward him, the employees ar
ranged to give him surprise in the
shape of three handsome presents
appropriately inscribed. These pres
ents were a heavy gold Howard watch,
revolving silver water pitcher, and
gold-headed cane. The watch was in
scribed ION the outer case with Mr..
Kelly's initials, and on the inner sur
face was the following: Presented
to j. A. Kelly by his office associates,
July II, 1887" The pitcher was in
scribed: '"To J. A. Kelly, from the
copyists department, July IL, 1887"
and on the cane was engraved "From
the Abstract Title Insurance Co. to J.
A. Kelly. July II, 1887" The pres
entation was made by Frank Gibson,
the manager of the company, in the
following words:
"You may not be aware of the fact,
but for some time time past there has
been feeling among your associates
in this Office that something ought to
be done to you for the way you have
been acting toward them for the last
few months. The feeling has grown
to such an extent that it has been re-
marked Water service it would be to
him if somebody would cane Kelly in
good shape The water service and
cane are here, and on behalf of a num-
Der of your fellow-employees, / ask
you to accept them with their wishes
that for many, many years the service
may afford you nothing weaker than
water, and that the cane may support
your steps in an honored old age, sur
rounded as now by numerous friends.
However painful this may be to you,
you must prepare yourself for other
consequences of your past condnct.
Several of your associates feel that it is
not sufficient to punish you for what is
past, but that yatch should be kept
on you in the future. They have taken
steps-several of them-to carry this
idea into effect, and have asked me to
put this watch on you, with the hope
that during long and useful life it
may never record for you the passing
of an unhappy hour"
Mr.. Kelly was taken so greatly 'by
surprise that he was almost overcome,
and was unable to do more than re-
turn few heartfelt words of thanks,
but the formalities over, he grasped
one and all by the hand and was able
to express his feelings more readily. |
The assurances given indicate that |
Mr.. Kelly will long retain the esteem
of all who are associated with him in |
his employment.
